The wind rises at the end of the Ming Dynasty

This time the military discussion was still Hong Chengchou's opinion, and Sun Chuanting did not disagree with Hong Chengchou's opinion.

The two are about the same level, but the power in their hands is very different.

Sun Chuanting was only the governor of Shaanxi Province, but Hong Chengchou was the governor of the three sides, and the governor of Shaanxi's three sides military affairs.

The three sides are Gansu, Yansui and Ningxia.

The chief soldiers, deputy generals and battalion generals of Yansui, Ningxia, Ganzhou, Guyuan and other military towns, as well as the governors of the three provinces, were subject to Hong Chengchou's restraint.

Hong Chengchou had already had a plan in mind, and when he received the letter from Sun Chuanting who had surrounded Gao Yingxiang in Heishuiyu, he had already thought about how to arrange Gao Yingxiang's death and wipe out the remaining rogues.

The military meeting didn't take long, but it was getting late when the meeting was held, and it was almost dusk when the military meeting ended.

After the military discussion was over, Chen Wang withdrew from the Chinese military tent with a group of generals, and the result did not exceed his expectations.

There is still no change in the place where he garrisons, and he is still arranged in Hanzhong Mansion.

Hong Chengchou asked him to continue to guard Hanzhong Mansion and stationed in Xing'an area to prevent Zhang Xianzhong, Liu Guoneng and other troops who were now trapped in Xunxiang and other places from fleeing westward.

When Gao Yingxiang entered Hanzhong Mansion, Chen Wang had already thought about the impact of Gao Yingxiang's death.

Gao Yingxiang's death will not have much impact on his residence.

So far, as long as Zhang Xianzhong and other ministries are still in the Xunxiang area, he will be kept in Hanzhong Mansion and will not be transferred to other places for the time being.

In the next few years, the Hanzhong mansion has been in turmoil, and Hanzhong City has even been threatened several times.

The reason why Hanzhong Mansion was classified as Shaanxi is actually because it is the barrier of Sichuan. If it is in the hands of Sichuan, then if there is a local force to rebel.

After losing the Hanzhong Mansion, the imperial court will undoubtedly spend a lot of effort to put down the rebellion.

Although Hanzhong Prefecture belongs to Shaanxi Province, in fact, the communication with other prefectures in Shaanxi Province is not too smooth, and it is relatively independent.

Hanzhong is actually far away from Xi'an Mansion, Fengxiang Mansion, or Gongchang Mansion, and the roads to Hanzhong Mansion from these places are relatively rough and difficult.

Therefore, in the current situation, Hanzhong Mansion needs someone who can stand alone to guard it.

However, there are not many people under Hong Chengchou who can use him now.

Cao Wenzhao must not be transferred away. Hong Chengchou needs Cao Wenzhao to lead the various soldiers and horses under his command to preside over the campaign.

Cao Bianjiao's prestige is sufficient and his bravery is extraordinary, but the biggest problem is that he has been fighting with Cao Wenzhao all along, and has little experience in guarding a place.

Neither can He Renlong. He Renlong is from Mizhi, Shaanxi. Although he is very brave and experienced in many battles.

But he was also a good fighter.

The so-called live war is actually the same as doing business.

The officers, soldiers and thieves at the beginning of the campaign were all from Shaanxi, or even fellow villagers.

There are also some deserters and the officers and soldiers who went on the offensive themselves were born in the same team, and the relationship between the two sides is even closer.

When the two armies faced each other, they did not move their weapons at all, and even greeted each other.

When the bandits saw the officers and soldiers coming, they left the looted animals, and then left part of the luggage or gold and silver.

But the officers and soldiers collected the money and things, and immediately let the rogues go. This is the so-called "live battle".

As for what was written in the Tang newspaper, it is naturally completely different from what actually happened.

Putting He Renlong under his nose, He Renlong is still the lunatic who can fight and punch.

But if He Renlong is released to Hanzhong Mansion, only God knows everything.

As the commander-in-chief, Zhang Quanchang could be alone, but he was captured after losing the previous battle.

Although he has now left the ranks of the rogues, he has been relegated to the frontier guards and served as an officer of the guards.

As for other generals and schools, let alone, each has its own problems.

And Chen Wang's deeds in Hanzhong Mansion are remarkable, so Hong Chengchou will naturally not make another transfer easily.

Chen Wang is very clear about his identity and status, and he keeps all his previous experience and Cao Wenzhao's points in mind.

Now every step he takes is extremely cautious, and he has made a decision after careful consideration. These things are all within his consideration.

Chen Wang was still thinking about what to do next, and what kind of arrangements he would have when he returned to Hanzhong Mansion, but He Renlong's voice brought him back to reality.

"Hahaha, good boy, Lao Cao said that you are good at fighting, but we didn't expect you to be so good."

He Renlong came up, put his hand on Chen Wang's shoulder, and said with a bold smile.

The old Cao he was talking about was naturally Cao Wenzhao, and the relationship between He Renlong and Cao Wenzhao was very good.

The friendship between the two began when Shaanxi was suppressed.

Back in Binzhou, when He Renlong left, Cao Wenzhao personally saw him off.

But having said that, Cao Wenzhao seems to have a good relationship with everyone, no matter where the governors are, they take care of Cao Wenzhao.

Even Hong Chengchou, who had a dispute with Cao Wenzhao, has a good relationship with Cao Wenzhao now.

"Actually, it's mostly a fluke..."

At this time, there were still many generals and schools around, Chen Wang felt the eyes of everyone, and said modestly.

He Renlong was careless and didn't care.

"It's a pity that the military gate is too urgent. I didn't bring the jars of good wine that I hid. Otherwise, Lao He would like to treat you to drink."

Chen Wang took a look at He Renlong, who was somewhat disheveled. The iron armor on his body was old and damaged, and the color of his battle robe was not as bright as before.

"Donkey ball, we are really tired."

He Renlong cursed and lowered his voice.

From Yan'an Mansion all the way to Xi'an Mansion, how can a person still be full of energy and drive in the starry night.

"The same is true for Junmen. We just arrived at Heishuiyu, and we haven't even had time to rest. Tomorrow, we have to leave camp and go north. It's so annoying."

Hong Chengchou made a strategy, and the rogues entrenched in the Shangluo area of ​​Xi'an Prefecture were assigned to Sun Chuanting to attack.

Deputy Commander Luo Shangwen, General Li Yuchun and other infantry battalions were assigned to Sun Chuanting's command to help clear up the bandits in the Shangluo area.

He Renlong, Zu Kuan and the others followed Hong Chengchou and continued northward to suppress Li Zicheng who was still in Yan'an Mansion.

Cao Wenzhao only left 8000 people there, and now he can only maintain his defensive position temporarily, and the pressure is huge.

Therefore, Hong Chengchou's military order is to set off at five o'clock tomorrow, and rush all the way north to Yan'an mansion.

There wasn't much rest time left at all.

Chen Wang's eyelids twitched, he had just left the camp of the Chinese army not far away.

Although He Renlong lowered his voice a bit, it was still very loud.

He Renlong is really daring, Hong Chengchou is not a big-hearted person, if he really heard it, he might be put on little shoes in the future.

Chen Wang was suddenly a little thankful that he was a servant under Cao Wenzhao's command.

Cao Wenzhao had a good relationship with other generals and most of the civilian governors, so he was not embarrassed by the officials, and even got a lot of benefits and benefits because of it.

If I were He Renlong's servant, I'm afraid Chunhua would not have been able to go to him at that time, and someone would be stuck as a guerrilla.

Chen Wang turned his head and glanced at Gao Jie who was walking in the rear right. Now Gao Jie is the battalion officer and general under Hong Chengchou's command.

But Gao Jie, who has been following He Renlong throughout history, became a guerrilla general only after He Renlong was killed for a crime.

The same is true for Sun Shoufa. After surrendering to Cao Wenzhao, he accumulated meritorious service and promoted guerrilla warfare.

Then he followed He Renlong and was stuck in the guerrilla position.

He Renlong's official career was not going well, and he failed to win the battle with Zuo Liangyu to defeat the general, so his achievements were obviously not bad.

Chen Wang subconsciously walked a little to the right. He is now sure that Hong Chengchou definitely remembered He Renlong.

"Let's not talk about it, you go to celebrate or something, let's go back to the tent first and get some sleep."

He Renlong patted Chen Wang on the shoulder, and then strode straight towards the camp behind.

Chen Wang looked back at the military tent behind him, and then at He Renlong's back.

There is a kind of small shoe, which is called wearing without knowing it.

After He Renlong left, Chen Wang immediately went to Cao Bianjiao.

Chen Wang is very clear about his identity. He is Cao Wenzhao's servant. This identity is of great benefit to him, so naturally he can't give it up. All the necessary etiquette needs to be followed.

Moreover, Cao Wenzhao has always been very kind to him. When he first became a battalion general, Cao Wenzhao told him some insights on the art of war, military training, and preparations for battle.

Not to mention the smooth progress along the way, successively served as the chief executive, chief general, guerrilla, and then general.

Although his military merits are enough to be promoted all the way, but in fact whether he can be promoted is not only based on military merits.

He Renlong and Gao Jie are the best examples. There are talented people in the DPRK and China who are easy to handle.

To be able to achieve the position of general in Hanzhong, Cao Wenzhao must have helped a lot in the operation.

Later, I had a problem, and thanks to Cao Wenzhao's suggestion, I was saved from being targeted by Hong Chengchou and successfully achieved my goal.

Compared with before, Cao Bianjiao is much more stable now, instead of rejecting people thousands of miles away as before, he had a chat with Chen Wang.

During the period, Zu Kuan and Li Chongzhen also joined together. Cao Bianjiao has not been in Liaodong for a short time, so he can naturally speak Liaodong dialect.

Chen Wang himself was from Liaodong, and the few of them talked in Liaodong dialect, and the atmosphere among them was quite harmonious.

Zu Kuan and Li Chongzhen also accompanied Hong Chengchou to the north to suppress Li Zicheng.

When Yu Chongxiao died in battle, most of the soldiers were taken in by Li Zicheng.

Guo Tianxing Huideng surrendered, Man Tianxing and Hun Tianxing died in battle, and many of the tribes under the three men were scattered, many of them switched to Li Zicheng's command.

Li Zicheng now has more than [-] people under his command. Although his strength seems small, there are many elites under his command, and their strength is not bad.

However, Chen Wang knew that although Zu Kuan and Li Chongzhen were recruited to Yan'an Mansion, they would turn back halfway.

At this time of year, the news has not yet come.

But after Jin, it should be called the Qing army now.

Because Huang Taiji had proclaimed himself emperor in Shengjing in April, and changed the name of the country to Qing.

It is now July [-]th, and the order of King Qin is about to come from Beijing.

In the ninth year of Chongzhen, the change of Bingzi, the Qing army entered the pass, conquered twelve cities, won 56 battles in a row, and entered Gyeonggi to threaten Beijing.

Lu Xiangsheng will be urgently transferred to Beijing soon.

And Zu Kuan and Li Chongzhen were also on the list of King Qin's army. They could only go north to King Qin after receiving the transfer order when they went north to Yan'an Mansion.

Sometimes history is such a coincidence. The period after Gao Yingxiang's death is the best opportunity to completely wipe out the peasant army and clear the pass.

But it was precisely because of this edict of King Qin that all plans and efforts were ultimately in vain.

If Zu Kuan and Li Chongzhen go north to Yan'an Mansion, Li Zicheng may not escape defeat either now or in history.

However, Lu Xiangsheng blocked Xunxiang's checkpoint, and Zhang Xianzhong, Liu Guoneng and others might be trapped to death in the Xunxiang mountain area.

But there is no if in this world.

Chen Wang was very aware of the impact of the entry of the Qing army this time and the King Qin's order.

What he wants to do now is to go south to Hanzhong Mansion as soon as possible.

Although he had the extraordinary feat of beheading Gao Yingxiang in this battle, at most he could only be promoted to a rank, become a lieutenant general, and at most be assigned a military post, and it is impossible to rise too much.

Although generals only need to have military merits, it doesn't matter how old they are or how much experience they have.

But the imperial court will not let a person be promoted too quickly.

Originally, Chen Wang had the official position of Deputy Qianhu, so it was not out of the ordinary to be promoted to a guerrilla, but after a series of victories, he was promoted to a general, which was also considered reasonable.

But if he is now promoted to the deputy chief soldier, the 26-year-old deputy chief soldier is indeed a bit too young, which is not a good thing.

Although Zhang Liwei and Wang Guozhong, who once assassinated Wang Jiayin, even directly stepped over the guerrillas, participated in a series of positions and were directly promoted to lieutenant generals.

But the power in the hands of the two deputy generals is not too great, and his own deputy general is the deputy commander-in-chief of Hanzhong Mansion, the chief officer of the entire Hanzhong Mansion, which is a bit too big.

Chen Wang had already made a plan. After returning to Hanzhong Mansion this time, he decided to keep quiet first, try not to make too dazzling achievements, and focus on logistics and the army under his command.

In the next few months, the Hanzhong Mansion was temporarily stabilized. Although there were still small groups of rogues making trouble, the large group of rogues invaded in the next year.

The ministries such as Zhang Xianzhong and Liu Guoneng who are entrenched in the Xunxiang area will no longer go west to Hanzhong Mansion.

After Lu Xiangsheng was transferred from the north to lead troops into King Jingqin, the peasant army in the Xunxiang area will turn from defense to offense, setting off turbulent waves again.

On the southern Zhili side, the Fifth Gezuo Battalion will also take advantage of the emptiness of the Ming army's defensive strength at this time, causing even greater disturbances.

But all this is later.

Chen Wang stopped in his tracks, and everyone around him had dispersed.

Chen Wang stood at the foot of Beishan, looking back in the direction of the Chinese army.

Before going to Hanzhong Mansion, he still needs to do one more thing.

He needs to rely on the power in the hands of Sun Chuanting to lay the foundation for future development.

"History of Ming Dynasty Biography Volume 160 One Zu Kuan"

"The frontier army is strong and stupid, and the soldiers of different sexes cannot be brought to justice."

"In the old days, there were many Guanzhong people in the army, and they worked hard with the bandits in the village. They threw away their lives and luggage, and then let them go. This is called "fighting a live battle."

"The frontier soldiers don't understand the language, and they kill the thieves immediately, so they win more."

"However, the burnt houses and prostitute women in the past, relying on their merits are not worth it... I think I am a guest general, and I have no persistence."
